Veritas® Bevel-Up Jointer Plane

A. Veritas® Bevel-Up Jointer PlaneThe Veritas low-angle jointer is the largest member of our bevel-up bench plane family. At 22" x 2-7/8" and weighing 7 lb 8 oz, it is ideal for jointing edges and flattening large panels.

The body is fully stress-relieved ductile cast iron, with a sole that is flat and square to the sides. An adjustable throat plate allows a wide range of mouth adjustment. Our unique stop-screw retains mouth settings while preventing blade damage when removing and replacing blades.

The bevel-up blade configuration results in a plane that is versatile and straightforward to use. The 12° bed angle, coupled with the 25° blade bevel, creates an effective cutting angle of 37°. Simply increasing the blade bevel results in higher cutting angles for improved performance in more difficult-grained woods.

Includes a lapped 3/16" (0.187") thick blade, 2-1/4" wide, in your choice of A2, O1 or PM-V11® tool steel. For working difficult grain, lapped 38° and 50° blades and a toothed A2 blade are available.

B. Veritas® Bevel-Up Jointer FenceThe Veritas low-angle jointer fence enables you to shoot consistent and accurate square or bevelled edges with your Veritas bevel-up jointer. The 11" long anodized aluminum fence can be attached to either side of the plane with the brass thumbscrews provided; a set screw can be adjusted to square the fence to the sole.

As supplied, the 2" tall guiding face can be used to plane edges perfectly square to the face of your workpiece. It can also be used to shoot angles less than 90° when a bevelled wooden guide is attached to the inside face of the fence.
